If there is a genuine risk of aerosol transmission to non CV patients, then they shouldn't be taken to a general hospital.

The NHS is badly designed and thus badly managed, imo.


The nightingales are going to be staffed via reservists and military nursing personnel from northern hospitals. The hospitals will act in a step down capacity.

Quite simply there’s not enough nurses or specialist icu nurses to use the nightingales as the primary care facility for COVID sufferers. Whose fault that is, is something that’s up for debate. Some will blame the government (present or past) some the NHS. I think the truth is somewhere between the two.
